 Snuupy | was finding it harder to justify so right now I just swap the hdmi/usb cables every time I want to switch machines, obv no remote hands for that | 11:30:54 |
| Snuupy | but it's been really helpful in diagnosing stuff like network bugs or errors that show on console when I can't journalctl | 11:31:25 |
| Snuupy | like one issue it helped me figure out was a rtl8111 ethernet issue where kernels older than 6.5.3 or some shit would fuck up the ethernet driver (r8169) after some period of time (like 24+hrs), someone eventually figured out it was an ACPI issue etc. etc., would've been a pain in the ass to hook it up to a monitor, it's really handy for headless stuff | 11:32:31 |

 threadpanic | We're gonna want Claude.ai from now | 22:05:29 |
| threadpanic | ChatCPT is basically a moron | 22:05:44 |
| 2 Apr 2024 |
 anyone00 | I wanted to create an account on Claude.ai but it does not support my country apparently | 02:04:13 |
| threadpanic | It doesn't technically support my country either (netherlands) but I was able to make my free account using a vpn, and once that was done I no longer needed the vpn. Making a Pro account however doesn't work (yet). I complained about it to their helpdesk, for what it's worth.. | 12:13:09 |
| anyone00 | we might be neighbors :) does not it require a phone number in the residing country? | 15:11:31 |
| 3 Apr 2024 |
| threadpanic | I don't know, because I didn't get far enough into the subscription process, but I doubt they require phone numbers. We're just going to have to wait.. | 11:18:11 |
| threadpanic | Another problem with Claude is that it gives breaking script errors with LW | 11:44:47 |

 clovius | When will desktop linuxes have modern security features, for people out of the box, that work forever.
like macOS or android? | 19:47:26 |
 deltanedas | wyci | 19:58:00 |
| threadpanic | I dunno, I think it's just a matter of accepting the grind... I have all the security features I need, so it's possible. What kind of security features do you mean, that work 'out of the box' on macOS + Android? | 20:05:47 |

I dunno, I think it's just a matter of accepting the grind... I have all the security features I need, so it's possible. What kind of security features do you mean, that work 'out of the box' on macOS + Android? hardware security like secure boot and access restrictions. | 21:03:32 |
| clovius | * in trivial hardware security like secure boot and access restrictions. | 21:03:51 |
| threadpanic | I'm sure something will get built, eventually.. :) | 22:24:59 |

in trivial hardware security like secure boot and access restrictions. access restrictions
could you go into more details? thats not enough for me to google it | 18:00:51 |
| sylvie | also, Linux is the kernel, the system as a whole is GNU/Linux | 18:01:31 |

access restrictions
could you go into more details? thats not enough for me to google it secure boot protects the boot loader and some parts of the system from being tampered with, an unacceptable luxury in linux.
In linux, this is an unacceptable luxury, and I mean literally the kind of access restrictions that are in android, limiting the possibilities of applications. | 18:56:53 |
| clovius | In reply to @zlago:matrix.org
also, Linux is the kernel, the system as a whole is GNU/Linux I disagree, this definition is misleading because there can be a system without GNU.
I'm talking about desktop linux, and since linux was intended to be a desktop system, that's what it is. And if you look up the definitions, you will find that linux is a family of desktop distributions based on the kernel of the same name, with some common standards. | 18:58:50 |

xdg/linux? :p maybe | 11:29:51 |
| sylvie | i do happen to use a bunch of the gnu utilities | 11:30:18 |
